All of the major Democratic (and Republican----save for Ron Paul) presidential candidates are inflicted to one degree or another with a disease called statism.

FDR was no hero to the forces of freedom or to supporters of constitutional government.
He also tricked this country into World War II. This also makes Frankie a war criminal---just like Dishonest Abe (who effectively set the stage for unconstitutional centralized government from Washington), Woody Wilson (who tricked our country into World War I and was responsible for the disastrous Versailles Treaty), and the current occupant of the White House.
